David Tulloch of the Places and Spaces blog has posted a well-produced video on the Tribute in Light memorial. In the video, lighting designer Paul Marantz discusses the process of bringing the concept to fruition. Designed and executed by the firm Fisher, Marantz, Stone in collaboration with a group of architects and artists, the memorial is an installation of 88 searchlights that suggest the outline of the twin towers against the New York skyline. The temporary installation originally debuted six months after 9/11, and it has been launched yearly on the anniversary of the attack, including this year.
